I sought treatment from Dr. Sara Van Anrooy many years ago for a phobia. I felt compelled after…read morereading the reviews posted here by other patients to follow through with my own review. On my first visit with Dr. Van Anrooy I explained that I am extremely sensitive to medications. She promptly started me on high doses relative to my weight of Pamelor and Klonopin. I was to increase the dosages several times over the next few weeks as prescribed. After the first few doses, I could barely communicate or think. I was also feeling quite ill and having multiple side effects. I contacted Dr. Van Anrooy's office and was told to "stay the course." As the dosages increased, so did the side effects. I called numerous times and always received the same response about staying the course, despite the fact that the side effects were quite alarming. Finally, my husband was forced to take me to the emergency room. I was diagnosed with clinical shock from the effects of the medications. My heartbeat was irregular and my pulse was fast and thready. My body temperature was extremely low and I was dehydrated. I was told that patients nnormally need to taper off of these medications, however, I risked possible death if I did not discontinue taking the medications immediately. I was also told the dosages of medication prescribed were way in excess of what is normally prescribed for a person of my body weight. Dr. Van Anrooy did not return my calls after I relayed my ER visit and diagnosis to her office staff. Most ironically, the phobia I had sought treatment for was a fear of doctors. This experience increased my fear exponentially, and I have never recovered from it. There are many excellent psychiatrists out there. Please do your research and choose carefully.

Not Worth It! We were recommended to go to Dr. VanAnrooy…read morebecause we were having a very hard time getting in to see another doctor in a timely manner. She was near by and didn't have a crazy wait time to see her. We ended up spending AT LEAST $5000 on visits and genetic testing that proved to be not helpful. I have since been told by other psychiatrists and medical professionals that these genetic tests are only useful and recommended for a specific type of patient, not EVERYONE! She prescribed Adderall for my son based on a 5 question, yes/no, check mark questionnaire. The drug made him feel anxious and HIGH! Just you want for your 17 yr old. For my daughter and I, she prescribed Gabapentin/Horizant (Neurontin) for anxiety, which we later found out is typically used for "chronic debilitating pain syndromes". Gabapentin may be helpful for anxiety in small doses, but Dr. VanAnrooy told us the drug is very safe and can be taken liberally. I was taking 6 throughout the day and after a couple of months, I was unable to concentrate and was having memory problems and difficulty communicating effectively. I literally couldn't remember my social security number or my husband's cell phone number! I thought I had dementia. She told my daughter that it would be perfectly fine if she were to take TWELVE gabapentin and drink alcohol if she was having social anxiety on a date. My daughter was also taking Horizant, a very expensive drug that actually changes over to gabapentin in your body, making these doses high even for people with severe pain. My daughter then developed severe fatigue and dizziness making it impossible to drive or work! After a very lengthy and thorough evaluation by an ENT, it was determined that it wasn't normal vertigo related to any inner ear vestibular disorder, but likely medication related. At this point we went to another psychiatrist who weaned my daughter off of these meds and prescribed a low dose of basic Zoloft, which is working wonderfully. She changed my medication to regular Prozac and I'm doing great. I was so convinced by what she told us. After all, she's a doctor and very articulate. I should have gotten another opinion before diving into her suggested testing and prescribed medications. This all could have been so much easier and not such a financial burden if we just would have gone to someone else.

I've been to a couple psychiatrists in my life and I was not impressed with this practice. I…read moreactually had really high hopes after my first appointment. April was super kind and made me feel comfortable about telling her everything about my life. I told her about my family history, depression, anxiety, and other issues. The second appointment I was a little less impressed. For one she had her dog in the office which I didn't like. I am allergic to them and left with itchy eyes. But more importantly she forgot about the issues I told her about at my previous visit. She mentioned she was switching to a new software which is fine but to forget why she was seeing me as her patient made me feel like she didn't care. She had to ask me all of the questions she asked me from my first visit. What a waste of time and money. I've tried calling to reschedule an appointment because I need to be seen for refills and nobody will answer the phone or call me back. Very unprofessional.

I would not pay $150 a session with her. She uses her psychological skills and tactics for personal gain and enjoys inflicting pain and psychological warfare upon patients at their expense.

She does not care how the medication affects them or their lives negatively or positively..

They told me this on the day of my appointment, leaving me little time to fix it as I was at work.

Even if it was, they threatened to charge me full price on the day of my appointment! I was at work so I did not have time to call my insurance company and figure this out for them. I would say this is a terrible company to work with especially when you have anxiety! Totally awful experience!!!
